Yesterday evening a little after five, we went on a family bike ride to the reservoir to feed the ducks. After the ducks had their first course, it started raining, lightening, and thundering so we got under a picnic pavilion and we were going to wait the storm out. Five minutes became 30 minutes and still it poured. Megan suggested we pray. We had a family prayer and we came up with the plan that Mike and Jon would ride home and come get us with the minivan. The rain and wind became more and more forceful and everyone got colder. I guess that plan wasn't going to work, so we called Mike's brother Ken instead. He came with a truck and a car to bring all of us ducks and our bikes home. We made a thank you card that we thought they would enjoy.
This is the story of my family. I have 7 children ranging from 18 to 5 years old. What adventures we have.
